IYPP PROJECT
Project Summary
- The Kinara Family Resource Centre (FRC) is a borough wide statutory resource – London Borough of Greenwich
- Kinara FRC ran Family Skills Training (FST) for young people and their parents, where the young person had previously offended, was at risk of offending, or the young person was having difficulties within school and/or at risk of exclusion
- The programme consisted of parallel groups for young people and parents, followed by family sessions. There are seven weekly 2 hour sessions and 4 later booster sessions
- The theoretical basis of the model draws on theories of social learning such as positive reinforcement, adult learning and child development, reinforced by research into the effective components of parent education
- The Kinara FRC worked with a total of 26 parents and 25 young people
